Measure Management & DAX Editor
Anyone who uses PowerBI long enough has had a PBIX with 50-60 measures and it has become time consuming and tedious to mantain. In Excel you can do a quick find/replace to edit several formulas - in PowerBI you need to select each one individually. An "excel-like" interface for editing measures would save a lot of time! This would take PowerBI to the next level regarding productivity. I've prepared a mockup for this as well as a DAX Editor. Let me know what you think.

+ a type ahead functionality would be a plus, or kind of "auto fill", e.g. start typing "calc" than press e.g. "Tab" and the editor propose results, like "Calculate".
+ a formula checker (like others already suggested would be great.I support entire idea. What a great effort DaveG. Thank you. Hope to see something similar soon.

The mockup looks fantastic, I can't believe they haven't even started to implement this yet.

This is a critical issue that is keeping me from migrating several business critical reports from Excel to PowerBI. Having maintained this data for over 7 years, we followed the progression of PowerBI from it's early origins in PowerPivot, creating tons of custom measures with both complex relationships and DAX formulae in their Data Models.

What? W don't have advanced editor in Power BI? Oh come on...I was about to ditch Excel for Power Pivot and now I have to go back...

Best mockup I've seen!! In a fully centralized data storage, a variable/measure that depends on native fields can be dragged across to other PBIX just as natural and whether the new pbix consumes the same native fields then it can attempt the calculation.

Brilliant idea, great mockup that clearly highlights the benefits. The only thing you're missing in the DAX Editor is a "check formula" button. I also suggest that you cross-post this into the Excel Uservoice site as well, because the Excel measures interface, while better than the existing Power BI one, could also be improved in this way.

Very good idea; only thing I would add is some kind of mechanism to bulk-format measures i.e. if you've just made 10-20 measures and they all need to be a specific format (#,# or #.#%) you can select them and apply to all.
Would save a lot of time rather than clicking on each and updating or hard-coding the format in the DAX.

A 'find' feature for the GUI is also relevant, as it helps one to quickly jump to a column in a query (M Language) or in DAX.

I love it! But definitely needs grouping! It's so hard to keep things organized for my own use, let alone collaborating with others on dev. I have well over 100 measures in a couple of my pbix files, and while strict naming conventions help, mine seem to render the Q&A useless.
